Was the recent Pokémon Go/Home transfer thing a giant blackpill for anyone else on this series? Like...it just proved how colossal of a waste of time Go is...how much of a waste of time collecting all these countless fucking costume Pokémon is...how much of a waste of time these games are as a whole. Seriously. What the fuck is the point of playing a game about catching creatures if at literally any point in time GF can deem said creatures unworthy of transfer? You’re literally paying for toys that can be forcefully put back in the toybox at any time.

>Spiky Pichu was a fun event made completely pointless and a waste of time to catch/raise because it’s locked
>Cosplay Pikachu made Pikachu really fun to use and it’s unique forms were great but made completely pointless in the end because it’s locked
>Totem sidequest with a fucking HUNDRED stickers to find for awesome giant Pokemon that get SHRUNK in Home rendering the whole thing fucking pointless
>Partner Pika/Eevee were the most lifelike Pokemon yet but because they’re HM slaves we can’t keep the fucking STARTERS, rendering a huge chunk of the 60 dollar game pointless
>Dozens and dozens of FULLY MODELED costume mons, some of which you have to pay money for raid passes to catch, are completely fucking void because they aren’t allowed into Home
>Oh but here’s 10 shit cap Pikachus!

What’s the point? Where’s the legacy? Where’s the feeling of accomplishment in showing your friends your awesome Pokemon you can only catch in certain games? Bank and Home are made so you feel linearity in your adventure, that you’re actually catching and raising your own little unique group. I just don’t know what to say anymore.
